* WPG2 CANNOT LOCATE GALLERY2 ITEM ID 17390 *Once again, a rouge group of UMTailgaters made their way to Conor Oneill’s for a full day of festivities. A 7:05am arrival left us table-less, but after throwing around some cash, we invaded the table of a few youngsters that had gotten in line at 4:30am. [...]

Well that’s right folks, last Saturday was the annual Umtailgate.com banquet ceremony.  It was fairly obvious that tailgaters and the U of M football team had their thoughts elsewhere during the Wolverine v. Cardinal football game.  The team was having visions of grandeur when they travel to the toilet bowl in 2 weeks, while the [...]

Nice job Franky, but you made some serious omissions. You get a pass since it’s game week #1 and I’m sure your nervous, but it would be unjust to not include the following amendments and add ons. Tailgaters, remember it is your duty to help continue making Umtailgate the fastest growing and [...]

In these dreary days of summer, where we sometimes find ourselves staring at the countdown to the season, it’s tough to fill the pages here at UMTailgate.com. So I will take a moment to celebrate a very important person, both to The Tailgate, and to the world in general. ME. Several tailgaters [...]

Has it really been two months between posts? Has it really been over 6 months since the debacle at the Alamo Bowl? Well, I would love to sit here and tell you that a lot has happened over the past 60 days, but life in the off-season has been as uneventful as ever. [...]

Holiday?
It’s an odd holiday. Is it a holiday? Not sure. It certainly doesn’t have the Hallmark card feel to it. St. Patrick’s Day is more of an e-card holiday.
It’s a day associated with all things Irish…drinking to excess, eating to excess, dancing around like an idiot. Basically it is a [...]

Oh Those Summer Nights
The shenanigans were few and far between this summer, popping up only on the weekends. No notable crazy trips, no cavorting about with any famous people, and no all-nighters with work in the morning. The age of the Ann Arbor fantasy campers may have reared its ugly head.
But then came the houseboat [...]

If You’re A Clone
Well, either this update is going to seem great and informative to you, or you’re not going to have any idea what the hell I’m talking about when I tell you I was hanging with Silk Braaaaa and Sean the Cablanasian on Saturday. Jim Rome, host of a syndicated radio show that [...]

The sun has risen in Ann Arbor, giving the too green artificial turf in Michigan Stadium its alien-like glow. I’m thinking this weekend’s trip might be a mistake. 730 miles to Memphis just to go to the bar? This is crazy. Almost as crazy as the fact [...]

Though they both don the name ‘Cafe’, there is nothing at either ‘Rick’s American Cafe’ or ‘Touchdown Cafe’ that has anything to do with food. They are labelled by Ann Arbor’s 25+ age group as the Kid’s bars, where college coeds go to swill cheap beer, dance to a decent hip-hop and top 40 set, [...]
